chihuahua has a lump on face

Question
Hi there,

I am very concerned about my chihuahua.. He has has lump on his face on 3 separate occasions in the matter of 2 months.. This lump is so big that it is kind of hard for my dog to see. The lump is filled with pus and lately he has been acting different. He gets scared very easily..he is barking more now...I would like ur advice before i go to the vet..thank you :)...can u please tell me the reasons why he might have this problem? we live in nyc so there arent an abundant of wild creatures runnign around. it thought something might bave bit him but now im not sure..  

Answer
Hi Tamara!This may be something more serious than a bite.I highly advise that you take your pet to the vet as soon as possible to rule out any underlying problems as this may be very serious and dangerous for your pet.PLEASE TAKE HIM TO THE VET AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!

Please keep me posted!
